Sorry for this video going for so long, I hope the regulars know that I have to cover everything every time or I'm asked the same questions every time.
This video is perfect. I've said it before and I'll say it again - Your videos are excellent. I appreciate how you don't follow the trend. Which is to say, you don't start the video off with 15 minutes of yammering, making the viewer wade through several minutes of forced, fake, annoying "shenanigans" and pretending what you're doing is far more fun/interesting than it is while also pretending to be having more fun than you actually are. No. You, Sir, offer straight up, no nonsense tutorials and spotlight/opinion pieces while managing to be charming and well spoken. I appreciate you and your videos very much. I'm also beginning to watch your videos from the other channel you use. I know a lot of hunters and outdoorsman. I will be recommending your other channel. Thank you. As a side note, it gave me a smile when I sorted out why you call yourself xONEWINGx. Clever and admirable. You're a mad cunt.
Kimiko Tanaka omg dude I was thinking the complete same thing. All the other you tubers would act like "WHATS UP WE ARE BAAAACK OMG LOOK AT THIS SUPER COOL ALPHA REX HUNTING BOAT WOOOOOOOOOO" which annoys me so much because it's clear that they fake it. I agree with you
funny thing is, the videos actually are fun... and probably ASMR bait, lmao. But seriously, I could watch his tuts all day, just for the sheer joy of watching him put stuff together while speaking somewhere between crocodile dundee's and bob ross' teaching style...
my first alpha kill story was me and a few friends cruising around on our raft about a week after the game launched on xbox ... none of us had seen an alpha rex yet. but there it was off the shore , we shot at it with bows and couldnt kill it , losing many men. so we retreated to our boat. the alpha gave chase. we were just barely outrunning him on our boat! but eventually he drowned and we claimed our victory over the beast. was like a scene from jaws!
Why can't everyone follow your example when making videos?! Simple, no screaming like a wedding DJ, no obnoxious music... you're like the Bob Ross of RU-vid ARK Tutorials. Subscribed!
I don't know if stone works for alpha rex anymore. The USS Hunter had to be honorably discharged because an alpha rex ate it.... Worked wonders up till that point I made a flat version and put your secret compartments along with it. It was absolutely packed with loot and nobody even gave it a second glance. So thanks for your amazing tutorials!
Thank you very much for making these videos. I have learned so much usefull things from you. I like the short, no nonsense, to the point way you deliver information. I absolutely do not mind that you repeat things from earlier videos, as those things need to be in, to make the video complete. I was happy to see you show how to use pillars alone, for sinking the foundations as I have been using that method myself, but still learned som new things about that. cheers
I wish I would have found your videos sooner, you would have saved me a lot of hassle. I didnt even know you could do all those tricks with pillars and foundations. Thanks a million!
Thank You Mr Onewing ,your Alpha Hunter Raft Vid saved me and my tames we were being terrorized by a Alpha Carno and he killed me numerous times but I took the time to build a basic version and it worked perfectly I deaded him in about 30 seconds with a pike. P.S. I'm on ps4 and this was Xmas Day so it definitley works still and works on PS4. thx again Happy Holidays!!
Thanks. Built it like a charm. Only thing I learned the hard way, was the floating foundations at the back can't be replaced. They need to be torn down and re-placed with the roof method. Also, I found out that if you're at limit and you want to replace a stone foundation with a metal one, it won't let you. It thinks it's adding another piece instead of replacing it.Otherwise, I'm out to find some alphas later!
Can confirm that the boat still works for raptors and carnos at 2 deep. However even at five deep it no longer works for alpha trex, whilst they can not climb up the back it still works in that sense that they get stuck but they are not immobilised, they will now be higher elevated and their head is now way above the foundations instead of the head pretty much inside the foundations. Because of this they will now sit at the back eating up all the foundations. I managed to kill one but my boat was wrecked at the back. I'd love to hear any ideas for altering it, even if motorboat extra item limit is needed.
As of 253.31, this works, though it's *very* important to get the initial 3x3 foundation placement right. I made one where I didn't put the pillar as far back from the mast as I could, and that didn't work. Alphas would like get lodged in the barricade and I couldn't damage them. After rebuilding it, following the video much more closely, it works. So just know before you start, absolutely get the placement of the first pillar exactly as described in the video, as that shifts the barricade's distance away from the rudder and apparently matters a great deal.
I love your builds and have been watching every one you make. you've made my game much better! one suggestion, I wish you'd put a suggested parts list on the description. "you'll need 100 walls, 10 doors, 10 ramps, etc" I'll watch the video over and over and draw it on graph paper so I can budget my build time, but if you left a "recipe" it would save me time :) otherwise, keep up the amazing work.
I love your builds i use your build style to build more bouts and bases thank u so much i have subed to your channel u have a very soothing voice for builds i have probably addad 20 vids to your build videos because i use them as guides

if you want to water plants without having to wait for the rain though ( say your on a tight schedule) you can remote use water skins and jugs in the plot to add irrigation value. unless this changed sometime recently i remember that working. only ever really saves you half an hour to an hour though
So, being a noob i got fooled by these 'build tutorials' at first, not knowing they are mostly done with mods i started thinking building an epic HQ would be quick and easy. instead, what came quick was a lack of storage space, and resources. And how much weight one could carry became a huge problem. I've learned my lesson, start small and renovate often.
i stop playing as well when my base got raided im still new. hard to wrap my head around this game im lvl 4ish on xb1 sever 11ukofficial. been robbed. raided twice rebuilt then raided.
+sylence Lvl 426, 1000 hours put into a base, had around 15 lvl 300 Giga's, couple dragons and a few Gods. Raided by the biggest tribe on the map, ended in about 25 minutes :/
One improvement I would make is to put the door of the boat to one of the sides that way if anyone lands or swims up and starts hitting the door with a hatchet they will be in direct line of fire of one of the plant. The way the door is now it looks like they can just run up to the door crouch and hatchet away safely. Also I would remove the door in the back completely.
awesome videos thanks man. seen your design on my world and went looking on RU-vid and found you. currently building your expedition and transport raft.
Confirmed working in summer 2020. There are easier ways to lower the foundations, but the concept of the boat is up to date. I got rid of two annoying alpha Raptors while still being low level and fairly new to the game.
I think one problem with this would be sharks wandering around and interrupting your operation. But it seems luring Alpha's of any kind into the sea is probably the best tactic for an easy kill.
Great video as always one wing, you found it hard to put that bed straight because you were in the way psst. If you want something straight but your in the way for you to place it press a on xbox and rotate it using your thumbsticks
Rocket turret is impractical. The ammo is not the kind of thing you waste to kill alpha dinos. If you try to kill an alpha rex using that rocket turret you will eventually blow up the front part of the raft. Even on the endgame raft, ballista is a better option, because it wont cause collateral damage, and you can reuse the ammo.
Carnos and raptors are super easy! Step 1 get a bunch of bio toxins and narcos. Step 2 get a high level pteranodon. Make sure it has good damage. Step 3 find an alpha and start chip its health off. wont take long if your pteranodon does dmg 60 dmg and above recommended. Step 4 make sure your pteranodon does not kill it or else your pteranodon will get exp. Except if your max and you want to up it. Explanation pteranodon is very small agile and a pretty good attack speed It has bad health so i recommend bringing some meat for force feed It will only take 10s of minutes to kill it, depending on lvl, the carno i killed was lvl 90 and only do this trick if you cant find a high and safe spot to shoot it. Or the raft trick
I play on PS4 and have the same problem with the walls freaking out when I try and place them. not sure if it works on Xbox but on ps4 if you are standing on the floor you want the wall to snap too and look almost straight down where you can only barely see the wall it will snap to the floor you want it to without the freaking out. love your raft builds I built myself the expedition and will definitely build this one!
Great build. probably bit of a hassle,but could be nice if you wrote in at the beginning or end how many foundations,walls etc. goes into it or in the descrition even.
There was this alpha rex nearby so me and a friend tried to shoot it with primitive crossbows and longnecks from on top of a cliffside, but it's not trapped so it kept running to eat and heal. Wasted our time and 400 ammo (mostly arrows). It was lv4
I disagree in saying just leave it to the rain honestly. On our primitive server we have a docking area for boats with pipe networks above it and spouts raining water down. Park a boat under it when you're at home and when you roll out your plants are watered fully ready for adventure. And water pipes are easy to make :) hope this helps supplement anyone making a plant turret boat
i think i did something slightly off. when i put the row of three sloped ceilings on there is a slight gap for two out of the three and i cant for the love of me figure out what happened. i had to dissect my boat and use fly/ghost but i still cant figure out what went wrong to cause that gap.
Came across this and loved the design. replicated it and had issues snapping the balista in place, gave up after to re-attempts but it worked. only issue I have now is I can't get the bed and smithy down as it said I reached my building limit. but unsure how. any ideas?
when I place the hatchframe it just goes into the ceiling rather than replacing it. So I just end up with a ceiling and a hatchframe in the same spot, but the ceiling is untargetable and I can only demolish the hatchframe or the balista.
When I do the line of 3 thatched roofs at the back of the rudder at 2:50 the middle one wont stay up so I am unable to place the foundation underneath it
Xonewing, some videos I would like to see are weapons comparison, most DPS etc; and DLC content! thnx and love all the strategic videos for ark survival, can videos be more often?
I just built the carrier boat and it's awesome. I used stone for the foundation and did all the rest in metal. How would you recommend modifying that boat if I want to add a generator and turrets?
